People who listen to certain recordings of music are in danger of being unduly influenced by spoken messages that have been recorded backwards on the records or tapes.

A consequence of the view above is that
(A) the spoken messages must be louder than the music on the recordings
(B) backwards messages can be added to a recording while still preserving all of the musical qualities of the recorded performance
(C) the recordings on which such messages appear are chosen for this purpose either because they are especially popular or because they introduce a trancelike state
(D) if such messages must be comprehended to exert influence, then people must be able to comprehend spoken messages recorded backwards
(E) when people listen to recorded music, they pay full attention to the music as it plays

Option A: INVALID
This statement is clearly misrepresented as it does not bother on the volume, Magnitude or extent to which the spoken messages must not be louder or lower as the case may be.

Option B: INVALID
Musical qualities and spoken messages are two separate things. Here, the quality could come in terms of beat on the recordings and lot more while the spoken messages could be informative , inspiring and strongly worded.

Option C: INVALID
Would have been correct but it descends more into the emotional outlook that it lost hold of the subject at hand, clearly explanatory but a bit of dwelling on the technical aspect.

Option D: VALID
This appears the most correct. The manner and tonality of this option shows the writer's understanding of the topic with great comprehension skill.
It explains the mood of the listening audience and the spoken messages from the recording.

Option E: INVALID
This option seeks to infer that all recorded music plays actively on psyche of the listener. It is quite understandable. However, it should be noted it's possible such generalizations are hasty for the fact that there are so many recorded music that people don't even understand the messages less the assimilation.
